Louise was 1 of only 3 teachers invited to teach at The Threads Experience. She was thrilled to meet new students and to teach her unique fitting techniques.

NEW SHIRTS FOR NEW DAYSTry one of these patterns (or both) to make venturing out even more of an event.

It's always nice to see the garments on someone other than the mannequin in my sewing room!

Fun to mix the 2 prints together, don't you think?

In a multi-colored print, this shirt/jacket can be part of many outfits.

This is the Anything But Ordinary top made a bit bigger, cause who doesn't play around with her patterns? It's Louise's Go-To top based on Anything But Ordinary. I gave you the instructions in a recent blog post.

A more classic take on this outfit.

Don't forget that the Anything But Ordinary jacket pattern can be made of linen and worn over a top or alone as a shirt in itself.

View A of Point of View. The stripes are aligned with the diagonal edge of the right front. This view uses the short sleeves. Both views have a double yoke, but the collars are different.

I love this cotton one with white pants. So fresh for summer. Below, you can see that we stacked buttons for more fun.

View B of Point of View. This one has long sleeves, but you can use either sleeve on either view. You can see that the back is longer than the front on both views.

Both views have the center back pleat.

Here's another take on View B. I left slits in the side seam so a sash could tie across the front. Note those buttons!
